 Added some sky | sAner
(4744) [2005-07-27 14:44:52] [16] | Hello,
All I did was copy some sky from the right and put it on the left so your crop isn't as tight as it was. Maybe it's too centered now? If you think that's the case you can easily cut some sky in the right. You just needed that extra sky on the left. ;)
I also added +18 shadows in PS CS2 so the details under wings are better visible. I hope you like it.
Regards,
Pieter |

 Hello Sebnem | sAner
(4744) [2005-07-06 14:05:39] [6] | Hi Sebnem,
With the original (which has an already amazing quality!!!) I did this WS. I think it's better than the version you posted as there's no halo in this version. I hope you can do a repost as this is certainly one of the very best picture I have seen on TN so far. I want to add it to my favs, without a halo! :)
I adjusted levels and used USM (300, 0.3, 0).
Warm regards,
Pieter |

 Additional sharpening | sAner
(4744) [2005-05-07 08:50:11] [3] | Hi Andy,
When you told me you only used a 150% amount in USM and a low radius, I tried to sharpen it some more without getting noise in the picture.
I used these settings:
Amount: 400%
Radius: 0.3
Normally I don't set the Treshold, but because some noise was appearing I set the Treshold to 5.
What do you think? It isn't much, but it's a tack sharper now.
Btw; shooting in RAW is indeed better, but the RAW images take up so much space ... :(
Regards,
Pieter |

 Just a fast WS | sAner
(4744) [2005-04-26 12:48:35] [4] | Hello Janice,
I tried a fast WS. Don't get me wrong; I really like your original but I wanted to see what a little USM did. This is what I altered.
Brightness: +7
USM: 400%, 0,3, 5
And I cloned out some white dots.
That's all.
Regards,
Pieter |

 Crop and USM | sAner
(4744) [2005-04-25 13:54:38] [4] | Hello Livio,
I cropped a little to get the Vulture a little more off centered.
Main thing I did was the UnSharp Mask: 400%, 03, 5.
I hope you like it.
Regards,
Pieter |

 Nest | sAner
(4744) [2005-03-11 05:54:04] | | Here you can see the nest. Because farmers removed all trees in the past and it takes a while to regrow them and because Hoiho's won't lay Eggs without 100% privacy, local parties were forced to build these 'houses'. When the trees are regrown, the houses will be removed. All penguins are 100% free, I can't stress that enough. |
